The provision of integrated care is key for older adults. The WHO Guidelines on Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) propose evidence-based recommendations for health care professionals to maintain and / or slow or reverse declines in the physical and mental capacities of older people.
Recommendations include improving muscoskeletal function, mobility and vitality with multimodal exercises and the provision of oral nutritional supplements (ONS) with dietary advice for those affected by undernutrition.
